Child slaves labored to make raw materials for the device you’re holding. Your purchase kept the market rate for raw materials high, encouraging the continued use of slave labor. Don’t you feel bad?

I agree, that’s why I have a Fairphone. It’s a way to minimize that impact.

Unfortunately a Fairphone is not a secure device.

From a practical standpoint it’s secure enough for me, and I value the fair sourcing of components and labor a lot more than the little I am losing on security.
